If you didn't change the default password on your router when you set it up, stop reading this and go change it now. Otherwise, you're vulnerable to the most dangerous threat on the internet. Not convinced? You can log into the router of a major university, corporations, and other organizations right now.
A hacker going by the name of SuperSl1nk has discovered a bunch of networks across the globe that are still using their routers' default passwords, and has published
a list of them along with the IP address anyone could use to get into the network. On this particular NetGear switch, the password is sadly "password" but this vulnerability exists for all routers and access points. The default passwords for these networking devices are widely known.
